Evaluations offer awards, recognition to student media

Want to find out how your student paper stacks up against those from other schools? Or would you like to know if your yearbook is as good as you believe it to be? Perhaps your magazine may need advice about some improvements you are considering for next year? Answers to your questions can be found in the annual evaluations offered by the CSPA to each Regular Member. Membership is available for student publications. The CSPA welcomes memberships from any student magazine, newspaper or yearbook published in a public, private or church-related schools, colleges and universities located in the United States or Canada or in overseas schools following the American plan of education.

Get materials to CSPA by deadline

The deadline for all newspapers and magazines submitting for evaluation is June 15th. It is CSPA's goal to return well evaluated critiques in a timely manner. Most of the adviser-judges are available during the summer months, so spring entry is strongly recommended. Yearbooks are encouraged to submit their books as soon as they are printed. To work with those books that are delivered in late summer and in the fall, we will accept yearbooks for evaluation until October 15th. A benefit for every member will be the Special Awards CD-ROM. Each disc has special presentations of all Crown Award publications along with the awards lists for Crowns.
